Fairies of all types reside in this world, each specializing in different magic, ranging from the most basic elemental magic, to shape shifting, and even traveling between worlds. Within this world is a forest so deep and dark, it is named Forest of the Eternal Night. It is home to dangerous beasts and monsters of myth, yet within the deepest darkest reaches live the beautiful Night Fae: Talented tailors, dream weavers, and master artisans. Each bears a different color moonstone embedded in their chest, which supplies their powerful magic. Along side each Night Fae exists a spider familiar, a creature whom converts dream energy into the finest silk imaginable. They lead extremely private lives, but one day a young woman dares to leave the confines of her forest home to see the world beyond. What will await her?

Author Becomes Character (Revised version) by ShairaMaeMafe

I woke up in an unfamiliar world, inside a body that wasn't mine. I mean. A realm brimming with magic, dragons, and every fantastical creature I had only dreamed of. Yeah, no big deal, right? At first, I tried to live as normally as possible in this strange new world-*you know, just blend in*-but then, after a life-changing event (read if you wanna know), it hit me: this wasn't just any random world. Nope. It was *the world*. The one I had created in the novel I had been writing back on Earth. How fun is that? I'm now living in the very thing I'd written. And to make it even more interesting? I'm a character who wasn't supposed to exist. My arrival has already started shaking up the plotline like a snow globe, and I'm over here trying to figure out where the heck to even start. So, where do I go from here? Hi guys this is the updated and revised version from the web novel cause I lost access to that account, a lot of things and characters are altered or changed, and Im sorry for the long hiatus.

The Heart Of The Forest by HasanStories

In the mystical forest of Althoria, where ancient trees whisper secrets and magic flows through every leaf, Elara, one of the last remaining fairies, lives hidden from the mortal world. With shimmering wings and silver hair that glows in the moonlight, she is a guardian of the forest's heart-a place where time moves differently and magic is alive. One evening, a lost traveler named Rowan stumbles into the forest, his path tangled after his horse bolts into the depths of Althoria. Though wary of the forest's dangers, Rowan is captivated by the ethereal figure who appears to offer him help-Elara, a fairy whose beauty and power seem to belong to another world. Though she has never shown herself to a mortal before, something about Rowan's quiet strength stirs a deep, unspoken bond. Guiding Rowan through the forest's ancient paths, Elara reveals a realm that blurs the line between the magical and the real. The deeper they venture, the more Rowan learns about the forest's secrets and his own connection to its ancient magic. At the heart of Althoria lies a stone circle where time and fate intertwine, and Rowan's journey is about to take a turn he could never have imagined. As Rowan and Elara grow closer, the forest reveals more than either of them is prepared for-an ancient destiny tied to Rowan's arrival and the future of the enchanted land. But love, magic, and danger are woven together in the Heart of the Forest, and Rowan must face a choice that will change everything. The Heart of the Forest is a tale of magic, mystery, and a love that transcends the boundaries of time. A journey into a world of enchantment, where fate is forged in the quiet whispers of the trees, and where one heart's choice could save or destroy everything.

Blood and Thunder by KyleWilliamUrban

You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.
